— Raniere, 58, branded former Smallville star and the cult’s second banana Allison Mack and booze heiress, Clare Bronfman, with his initials.

— At his peak he had up to 20 “sex slaves.”

— The cult leader is accused of raping girls as young as 12.

— Court also heard Raniere imprisoned one woman who had fallen out of favour for 18 months.

— Another follower was allegedly forced to run into a tree and drink from a puddle.

Former member Marc Vicente testified about Raniere’s insatiable sexual drive. He revealed he encouraged Mack to starve herself while forcing heiress Clare Bronfman to wear a jock strap for misbehaviour.

And for the first time, jurors were shown photos of the branded sex slaves.

Vicente said the photos were kept in a drop box created by Allison Mack.

Also inside the secret box was collateral of each of the sex slaves: Nude, salacious photos, and their darkest secrets.

If they fell afoul of Raniere, he would allegedly release them to their families and the press.
